The literal translation of the French words Tete de Moine is "Monk Head". Although this fine Swiss cheese was first created by monks, it is now produced by the lay community. Tete de Moine, made in the Swiss Alps near Bellelay from rich, unpasteurized cows' milk, is a sharp cheese with a full, nutty flavor. Its intense flavor is even more pronounced when compared to other cheeses from Switzerland, like Gruyere and Emmental. A true specialty item, Tete de Moine deserves to be regarded as one of the world's great cheeses.

Family enjoyed serving this cheese and eating it at Easter....All would like to have again.

dry

The cheese was dry and did not form these beautiful smooth ribbons of cheese that would melt in your mouth. I was very disappointed in the product this year.

It's always a winner

We served this at an art studio tour, Great ice breaker/conservation starter. It was so impressive that I had to print up 100 info cards as we had gotten so many questions about it. Exceptional cheese!! MUST HAVE CURLER to serve this cheese.
